FO: Light as Air

Featherweight Cardigan by Hannah Fettig is such a fun little wear. Not so fun to knit - miles of stockinette with tiny yarn, but a great design. I love versatility of this little cardi!

Some knitters have done some shaping - maybe I will on the next one.

Details: Yarn is Silky Alpaca Lace and I knit it on KP #4 for the body and sleeves, #3 for the ribbing.

Thanks for stopping in and taking a look :-) Happy knitting to you ~

FO: Pretty Baby Sweaters

My friend's daughter had twin girls so I knitted these for them. But they have grown quite a bit and these will be too small. So I'll wait until the right person comes along and will gift them.

The pattern is the Pretty Baby Sweater which is almost the same as the 5-hour Sweater. The only difference I could discern is that there are buttonholes in this one and i-cord tires on the other.

The yarn is Caron Simply Soft in orchid and light green. This yarn is pretty good for acrylic but not my favorite to knit with. I really prefer some cotton or wool blend in to give a more organic feel. It slid pretty well on my #7 Options.

I don't know if you can see the buttons, but on the orchid sweater they are butterflies and on the pale green, bears :-)

Now I am looking for a 9 month pattern for girly sweaters for the girls. Any ideas?

Happy knitting ~
